Commands

info

V2.0.0+ / recode info

The re-code should detect that you have the old data and create copies in the new format, however you will need to re-do the config.

If the portals to not import for any reason, you can manually trigger the import by running /portals import.

Do not worry. The original data will not be deleted, and you can revert to older versions if you run into problems.

All commands included in Advanced Portals are listed below along with their permissions.

Note: all /portal commands can also be used with /advancedportals or /aportals instead.

Same goes for all /destination commands can be used with /desti

Also if you want blocks such as nether portals not to break when being placed you will need to define the portal before placing them. This is so the physics updates know not to mess with vanilla portals being broken or other plugins :)

Portal Command

Usable Alias: /portal /ap /portals /aportal /advancedportals

/portal create (tags...)

Permission: advancedportals.portal.create

This command is used to create a portal. The behaviour of the portal can be determined by the tags given (see list below), but a name must tag must always be given name:some_name_here

As a side note, make sure to check the triggerblock: has been set if you are not using nether portal blocks. These are blocks that you need to be INSIDE so blocks such as water and even cobwebs will work, but cobblestone will not be a suitable triggerblock.

For a list of tags and info, check out the tags page.
